Miller

Author JAMES ANDREW MILLER, the writer or co-writer of acclaimed oral histories of "SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE," ESPN, and CAA, will host a podcast for DGital MEDIA.  "ORIGINS" will focus on the beginnings of everything from pop culture and business to politics and human relationships to examine the start of greatness.  The show will launch this SUMMER.

“I’ve read every book JIM has written, in addition to his work for THE NEW YORK TIMES and VANITY FAIR, and I am a fan first, both of his incredible journalism and of his dedication to premium level storytelling and access,” said DGital MEDIA Chief Content Officer CHRIS CORCORAN. “Considering the credentials, reputation, access, trust of his peers and the storytelling ability that come with the name JAMES ANDREW MILLER, a podcast is an unbelievably perfect medium with which to share a new phase of his reporting. This is, in fact, a terrific concept, and Jim is the best possible person to execute it. He has interviewed thousands of creative figures and prominent business leaders.

“I’ve had this idea for quite a while now,” said MILLER, co-author of ESPN history "THOSE GUYS HAVE ALL THE FUN" and SNL history "LIVE FROM NEW YORK" and author of CAA chronicle "POWERHOUSE,"  “and I’m excited to bring these unique stories to life. When working on oral histories and other reporting, one of my favorite parts of the process has always been digging into the beginnings of journeys. I find early stage stories intoxicating, and love examining the factors that contribute to success or sometimes lead to setbacks, many of which seem incidental at the time but later prove pivotal.

“This series will give us all the opportunity to hear from and learn from, some of the greatest names in many fields, and I am proud to partner with the team at DGital MEDIA. With ORIGINS, listeners will hear the actual voices of those in the arena who made these tremendous success stories possible."
